The WISER Leadership Team
WISER is led by the Kenyan NGO, made up of experienced professionals passionately committed to our mission, as well as two WISER alumni who personally understand the challenges facing girls and bring local knowledge and experience. Our new chair is Madame Dorcas Oyugi. From growing up as a girl in rural Kenya near WISER to becoming a nationally recognized eduator, Dorcas’ life models the path for our girls.
The Kenyan Board of Directors
We have a dedicated team of professionals including WISER girl alumnae who volunteer their time and expertise to maximize WISER’s impact. Having former WISER girls on the board ensures that their critical voices and experiences shape our programs. WISER’s success is based on listening to and honoring local knowledge from all walks of life in Kenya.
